<p>Is there a way to get the forward/back mouse buttons to work in the Zulip desktop app? They work fine in the browser.</p>

<p>I don't think it supports it natively: <a href="https://github.com/zulip/zulip-desktop/issues/1015">https://github.com/zulip/zulip-desktop/issues/1015</a></p>
<p>I use the keyboard for back/forward (⌘ ← → ).</p>
<p>Depending on what OS, mouse, and software you have, you might be able to configure some kind of macro that would send the relevant keystrokes.</p>

<p>Huh, interesting Electron issue. VS Code supports it out of the box.</p>

<p>Vs code is the only electron app that I can open without crying immediately</p>

<p>Well, Slack too, but that’s because I’m too busy putting out the fires it causes in my computer</p>
